READY TO READ GRANT

"The Ready to Read grant program is how state funding is distributed to legally established public libraries in Oregon. The purpose of the grant is for libraries to establish, develop, and improve early literacy services for children 0-6 years old and the statewide summer reading program for youth 0-14 years old. Research shows that early learning and summer enrichment activities have a significant impact on the achievement gap. Library early literacy services and summer reading activities support the state of Oregon’s education priorities and initiatives." - State Library Webpage
